Solo Max-Level Newbie Chapter 20

Episode 20 Ruins, Corridor of the Fallen (1)

Excitement! pounding! pounding!

Looking at the flickering status window, Jinhyeok’s heart beat rapidly.

A one-line sentence written as a privilege.

okay.

I kept wondering.

The fact that he saw the top of the tower for the first time, but there was no reward for it.

The reason why the system has been silent all this time.

all of that.

‘Maybe it was with the intention of giving it along with the reboot update.’

Jinhyuk hurriedly looked around.

“This is done. So, how much do you pay per day?”

“I give in coins rather than cash.”

“what. Mr. Park. What are you going to do with the coin? Climb the tower?”

“For porters like us, the only thing left is to get cash. Crispy cash is better than rotting coins that can’t even be used outside.”

Everyone is busy talking about the daily party.

If so, this…

must mean that the reward given only to me is correct.

“I will check.”

Jinhyuk muttered quietly.

OK.

[The first perk opens.]

[Passive ‘Eat yourself’ is activated.]

[Eat yourself]

Description: You can get the best reward if you take it alone without sharing the final reward. .]

[Luck stat is permanently increased by +10.]

[Adaptive stat increases by +10.] [

Relentless Heart is activated.]

[Relentless Heart: Allows you to maintain composure even in tense situations. . However, the human mind may fade.]

‘This can’t be!’

Jinhyuk unknowingly clenched his fists.

If you eat alone, I’ll give you the best of the rewards.

Unexpected things popped up.

It’s crazy.

This is seriously crazy.

That’s right.

Optional rewards often appear in the Tower of Trials.

It’s a good choice, it’s the same as turning a gacha.

There were even cases where only one out of thousands came out of the jackpot.

But isn’t that the point of ignoring the odds altogether?

without sharing with others.

As long as you keep the condition that you eat it all by yourself!

‘haha.’

Thanks to the accumulated experience so far, he has developed a personality that is not surprising at all.

But this time, it was hard to swallow the cheers that erupted.

Maybe he’s biting his lower lip with his molars?

‘Luck stats… I never thought they would give me this.’

It wasn’t as great as the Gap, but

in the Tower of Trials, which boasted an atrocious level of difficulty, luck boasted tremendous efficiency.

It was all dependent on this luck stat to overturn an impossible situation by chewing up even the probability with stupid words.

‘It’s the first time I’ve seen the adaptive ability…’

It can only be guessed at the meaning of adapting to something.

It was an ability that did not exist before.

Excluding the last one, the other two perks were close to buying.

Besides, the first perk means that there is at least a second one.

‘Looking at the status window no longer appearing, it must be the end here.’

After carefully checking the reward once again, Jinhyeok closed the status window.

Just in time, the story about the daily party ended.

“If it’s 300 a day, it’s not bad.”

“Not bad. I’m risking my life It means that our lives are worth 300.”

“shit. Since when did you care about that? Besides, I heard that Assistant Manager Oh is participating in a full-fledged guild this time?”

The porters’ eyes turned to Oh Seung-hwan.

“yes. This raid is a coalition battle. A top 10 large guild and two mid-level guilds participate.”

large guild.

If it’s in the top 10, it’s an incredibly high ranking.

Because the number of guilds around the world has easily exceeded 10,000.

“In addition, there are many solo rankers participating, so there is no need to worry too much.”

“Draw?”

“Puhaha. We can safely hide behind and carry the luggage.”

“It will take about three weeks, so 5,000 per head will fall even after expenses.”

Everyone burst into cheers at Oh Seung-hwan’s words.

“now. If it’s roughly finished, let’s end it here.”

“How about a drink of soju with Mr. Park and Mr. Kim? Pork belly. huh?”

“Big. soju is good I was still thinking about alcohol.”

“There is a store I know, so just follow me. It’s in making the three layers and the shells very crispy.”

Suddenly, the atmosphere turned into a drinking party.

“Your brother won’t come? If you want to work hard tomorrow, take a shot of soju! should I?”

“I am fine.”

Jinhyuk shook his head.

Even if you take a good rest right away and raise your condition to the peak, alcohol is not enough.

Everyone doesn’t know, but they don’t know too much.

How dangerous the first floor ruins are.

‘It’s nonsense to think that a guild that is only in the top 10 will be able to attack it.’

The future of the raid was already decided.

Critical blow to annihilation or close to annihilation.

it will be one of the two

and.

Jinhyeok’s goal is to find a gap that only deceased figures can do in the set ending.

＊＊＊

Kwaaaang!

The huge desk was smashed and pieces of wood flew everywhere.

“Whoa. Whoa!”

It seems like I haven’t been able to clear my anger. The man’s shoulders shook violently.

“This… what kind of disgrace is this!”

Master of the Black Crow Guild.

Gunsoo Shin.

He was in a state of anger rising to the top of his head at the news he had just heard.

That’s right.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He kicked off the ladder that could lead him to the top in the new world.

It was also because of the mistake of the guy he trusted the most.

“Do you know how much coins and items I invested in to attract the Fighting Fathers Guild… how much?”

“sorry.”

Park Ha-jin, who was kneeling on the floor, lowered his head.

“sorry? sorry? Does a guy who knows he’s sorry do that kind of shoveling?”

Shin Geon-soo picked up a golf club.

Then, without mercy, he started beating Park Ha-jin.

Fuck!

Pooh!

“Gagging! Turn it off!”

“I fed your sister the most refined Korean ginseng we have.”

Good luck, almost miraculous.

The only Korean ginseng with a purification rate of over 50% was given to Hana Park.

“You could just follow along and blow the trumpet when Hana Park gets an A rank.”

Violence was loaded with emotions.

puck! Kwadeuk!

back and shoulder head.

Wherever the hands could reach, beatings continued to the extent of being merciless.

“But you can’t do any of that right? huh? Was it that difficult?”

Whoops!

Quaang!

With the sound of cutting the wind, the golf club hit Park Ha-jin on the head.

Red blood splattered on the floor.

“Turn it off…”

Eventually, Park Ha-jin’s body collapsed.

Only then did Shin Geon-soo stop hitting and threw the golf club to the ground.

“The bastard who interfered. who is this? Say what you are doing.”

“That’s a guy named Kang Jin-hyeok…”

Kang Jin-hyeok?

It was a name I had never heard of.

“What is your rank?”

“…”

Park Ha-jin didn’t answer.

I couldn’t answer precisely.

“I can not hear you? What is your rank?”

When Shin Geon-soo tried to grab the golf club again, a crawling voice came out.

“…F.”

“F. F?”

For a moment, Shin Geon-soo felt a shock as if he had been hit by a hammer.

“Haha, this is ridiculous. therefore. I was punished by a rookie who received an F grade, isn’t this?”

…it’s the head.

At this point, even if you want to get angry, your pulse is relaxed.

“It’s done. Isn’t that bastard going to take the second test soon? Take the kids and clean them up. If it’s inside the dungeon anyway, there won’t be any evidence left.”

Pursuit order.

Shin Geon-soo decided to move at the guild level.

“All right.”

Park Ha-jin clenched his fists.

Previously, I got hit because I was careless. It’s different this time.

As long as Shin Geon-soo’s permission is granted, a group consisting of B-class players will move.

‘As much as I suffered… No, I’ll play with it for as long as possible and then kill it.’

Park Ha-jin’s head was filled with thoughts of Jin-hyeok crying and begging for his life.

＊＊＊

The next day at 4:30 am.

Jinhyeok headed to the meeting place, the Tower of Trials.

“You’re here. You’re right, Mr. Kang, right?”

“Here! come here.”

The sun hadn’t even risen yet, but the porters and miners had already arrived.

Since the players had to be able to focus only on the battle, non-combat people had to move diligently.

Seung-hwan Oh was nowhere to be seen.

‘Well, that person was the manager who mediated.’

Instead, there were far more people waiting than the porters I met yesterday.

After about 10 minutes, someone cleared his voice.

“-greatness! Big! I am Kim Gyeong-yeol, the class leader who is in charge of food. Feel free to call me Captain Kim.”

A man who appeared to be in his early 50s introduced himself.

“Our job is to carry food and other supplies for a week’s worth of 300 raiders. In terms of weight, it will be 70 to 80 kg per person. It won’t be easy, but the schedule is tight, so let’s all do our best. At a time like this, where else would you go and get 300 per day?”

Detective Kim mentioned the gang

, but most of the faces were distorted.

“Damn it. It must be filthy heavy.”

“I’m going to go all the way out. Doesn’t that mean you have to carry it all day?”

“But the weight will decrease as time goes on, so what…”

“Stop making noise. Go to the front of the truck and pick up items in turn. You have to arrive by lunchtime.”

Several voices came and went.

I grumbled, but I couldn’t help it.

Because the contract has already been formally signed.

Soon after, the porters were given heavy-looking backpacks from the trucks.

“Sir… Sir.”

“Big!”

People who crumple their faces as if they were carrying everything in the world.

“Come on, take it. There are no exceptions for class F, so don’t be afraid.”

Detective Kim handed over the backpack to Jinhyeok.

but.

‘hmm?’

Jinhyeok, carrying his backpack, tilted his head.

light.

too much.

‘I can hardly feel… the weight.’

But does this make sense?

The level was the same from the labyrinth until now.

After mangrove cutting. Since he had never raised his strength stat additionally, a backpack weighing over 70 kg would not feel light.

no way.

Something passed through Jinhyuk’s head.

Jinhyeok immediately activated the personal status window.

——————————— ———————

Just one.

Something has changed.

The 3 perks given along with the saying that it was the 2nd update.

And the last stat whose use was unknown among them.

[Adaptive stat +10]

Yes.

That’s it.

‘Because he works as a porter, he adapts to it and feels light in weight.’

Assuming so, the front and back are correct.

In addition, if you can receive the same effect as now during battle or in other situations…

It is a stat that cannot be compared to Gap or Luck.

It was then.

for a moment.

wait for a sec.

‘Isn’t this a stat given only to those who have seen the top of the tower?’

It’s a terrible probability, but there was a way someone could get other stats anyway.

However, adaptive abilities are an exception.

‘At all…there is no way to obtain it.’

only one.

Except for me.

As the thought continued, goose bumps ran through my body.

I feel like I got the chance of a lifetime.
